While many studios are struggling to adapt to telework conditions during the current health crisis, the specialist in mobile games Zynga, he says manage perfectly to the situation.
Matt Bromberg, Chief Operating Officer at Zynga (Words with friends, FarmVille, Mafia Wars), said in the columns of GamesIndustry.biz that working from home had no impact on the company's development schedules.
We are very proud of our teams in terms of the ability to transition to working from home. The fact that almost 2,000 people around the world left the office overnight is quite extraordinary. We have not seen any significant negative impact from this transition so far, so we do not expect it to have any significant material impact at all. We keep creating new content, we keep building our new games. Everything seems to be, on the whole, on the right track.
"If we had to, we could do it forever", adds the COO, whose teams deal exclusively with digital content; Since March, Zynga has moreover witnessed better public engagement for its productions.
We're seeing an increase in re-engagement from users who have stopped playing, and we're also seeing existing players play more, as well as an increase in new players.
